The California Air Resources Board is hosting its Diesel Truck Regulation Information Session and Conference in Los Angeles to inform fleets about current rules on diesel engines and explain how to maintain compliance.

The event takes place on Feb. 24 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Los Angeles Trade Tech College near downtown Los Angeles.

Discussions will include information about truck and bus regulatory requirements, funding opportunities and enforcement. Local agencies including air districts, the California Highway Patrol and equipment vendors will participate.

There will be sessions on a truck and trailer rule update, funding updates, enforcement inspection demos and vendors on display. To sign up for the event call (916) 322-3937 or email arbtrain@arb.ca.gov. To register online, click here.

A recent bill proposed by California State Senator Nancy Skinner (D-Berkeley) lays out an even more aggressive plan for emissions reduction in the state and puts the transportation sector squarely in its crosshairs.

The price of regular gasoline continued to decline over the holidays and reached an average of $2.266 per gallon for the week ending Dec. 31, which was 5.5 cents lower that the prior week, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
